The Australian share market remained unusually flat for a fifth time in seven days, hovering near breakeven as investors await major earnings releases and monitor Middle East developments. Tech stocks surged over 3%, led by Next DC's strong contract wins, while resource stocks also gained ground.

Steve Daghlian and Laura Besarati are Market Analysts at CommSec. Each episode, they break down the day's market movements and explain what the numbers really mean.
